Chapter 44: The Rest of My Life Is Only You

~9 min read 1,657 words

People on the roadside turned their heads one after another, looking at this woman who was beautiful beyond words, yet sobbing uncontrollably on the sidewalk.

Suddenly, a pair of strong, large hands helped her sit down to one side.

She looked up abruptly, only to see it was Chen Yu, who had returned; he was holding a pair of new flat shoes.

"Husband, you..." Ye Xinyu was startled.

"You're pregnant, don't wear high heels." Chen Yu gently took off her high heels and changed her into the new flat shoes: "From now on, no matter the occasion, don't wear high heels again. These flat shoes are soft and comfortable, and they make walking steady."

After saying this, Chen Yu grabbed the high heels and threw them into a trash can.

"You aren't angry with me anymore?" Ye Xinyu asked.

"Why would I be angry? You are my wife." Chen Yu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled slightly: "Who hasn't been deceived by scum? Besides, a person like Liu Wenyuan is extremely calculating; in his eyes, you are just a little lamb."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know he had returned, and I didn't know it was him who signed the contract." Ye Xinyu's tears fell again.

"It's okay. If he dares to bother you again, I will make him regret being born into this world." Chen Yu reached out his hand: "No one is allowed to bully my, Chen Yu's, wife... I swear, for the rest of my life, there is only you."

Ye Xinyu smiled. She reached out her hand, held Chen Yu's, and leaned against his shoulder, her face overflowing with happiness...

"Wife, let me send you back; I have something to do right now." Chen Yu saw Ning Ruoxue in the distance, so he said.

"No, go ahead and get busy. I'll go to the company myself; it's not far from here." Ye Xinyu straightened up and said.

After seeing Ye Xinyu off, Chen Yu and Ning Ruoxue went into a coffee shop.

"Is that your wife?" Ning Ruoxue asked.

"Yes." Chen Yu nodded.

"Quite beautiful." Ning Ruoxue smiled.

"Do you have any new developments?" Chen Yu asked.

"No, but I received news that Zhou Lin and Li Qingwan might be returning to the country," Ning Ruoxue said: "Moreover, the Chen Group, which belonged to Chen Yu before he died, has been renamed Qingwan Group and is about to go public."

"Zhou Lin holds thirty percent of the shares, Li Qingwan holds sixty-five percent, and the rest are some small shareholders."

Chen Yu's fists clenched involuntarily: "Are they finally coming back?"

"They say they intend to return, but the specific time is unclear." Ning Ruoxue stared at Chen Yu, not missing any expression on his face: "Additionally, Li Qingwan and Zhou Lin have already married abroad. Their trip abroad this time was to go on their honeymoon."

Crack! The cup Chen Yu was holding in his hand shattered suddenly. The broken shards pierced deeply into his palm, and blood mixed with coffee dripped onto the table.

Even though he had long known this would be the result, Chen Yu still found it hard to accept the fact.

Li Qingwan and Zhou Lin were the person he loved most and his best brother in his previous life. These two people colluded together to drive him into a situation of eternal damnation, and now this pair of scoundrels were dominating his family assets and living carefree lives abroad.

"Has that injured person still not been found?" Chen Yu's fists clenched and unclenched.

"There is no news for the time being." Ning Ruoxue looked at Chen Yu: "You seem very concerned and agitated about my friend's affairs. Can you tell me the reason for this?"

"There's no reason, I just feel that our names are the same, so there's quite a connection, and I also feel sorry for him; it wasn't worth it." Chen Yu forced a smile.

"That's not it." Ning Ruoxue shook her head slightly: "The feeling you give me regarding Chen Yu's affairs is that you are empathizing, as if... as if you were the one who was harmed."

"I just feel it wasn't worth it for your friend," Chen Yu said: "Perhaps it's just your illusion."

"I hope it is my illusion." Ning Ruoxue paused and did not ask further: "Alright, I need to go to the hospital to handle some things."

"Go to the hospital? You aren't feeling unwell, are you?" Chen Yu was stunned.

"One of my clients, a girl, a sophomore in college, was assaulted while working a part-time job at a bar. She now has some mental issues and is receiving treatment at the hospital. I'm going to see her and learn about the situation."

After Ning Ruoxue finished speaking, she looked at Chen Yu: "You are a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine; do you have any way to deal with psychological trauma?"

"It depends on the situation, but it shouldn't be a big problem." Chen Yu said: "I'll go with you."

Hospital, Department of Psychiatry and Psychology.

A girl was locked alone in a hospital room. She was curled into a ball, hugging her legs tightly. There were still blue and purple bruises on her face. She was like a frightened little bird; any movement or sound could trigger her panic.

This girl was Li Su, the victim of the bar assault case that had recently caused a sensation. Outside the door, a woman who looked aged was her mother.

"Lawyer Ning, I beg you, you must bring that bastard to justice." Li Mu was still sobbing uncontrollably when she mentioned her daughter's condition.

"Auntie, don't be agitated. The other side has someone coming forward to take full responsibility. We are currently looking for evidence. Please rest assured, I will definitely send the main culprit, Du Ming, inside." Ning Ruoxue comforted her.

"How is Su Su now?" Ning Ruoxue looked through the glass at the girl with the vacant gaze.

"Her mood is very unstable now. She often wakes up in terror from her dreams and engages in self-harm, hurting her own body. The doctor can only use sedatives and psychological intervention for now, but if this continues, she will have to be sent to a professional psychiatric hospital."

Li Mu cried: "Why her? Why my daughter?"

"How is it? Is there any way?" Ning Ruoxue looked up and asked Chen Yu.

"She has psychological trauma caused by being harmed. Has the main perpetrator not been caught?" Chen Yu asked.

"She comes from a single-parent family and is a very sensible girl. After school, she would go to a bar to work part-time, but she was targeted by a bastard named Du Ming, who then harmed her."

Ning Ruoxue frowned and said: "But Du Ming's status is unusual, and there is a scapegoat over there who voluntarily took all the responsibility. I have been looking for evidence."

"If she could testify personally, I would have a sixty percent chance of success, but in her current state, I really don't dare to stimulate her." Ning Ruoxue sighed.

"I'll handle this matter. I'll go in and take a look." Chen Yu looked at the girl in the room and felt some pity for her.

"Auntie, this is my friend Chen Yu. He is a doctor, and he has a way to make Su Su get better." Ning Ruoxue said to Li Mu.

Chen Yu gently pushed the door open and walked in. The door made a slight sound, and Li Su inside jumped in fright.

"Don't come over, go away, don't come over." Li Su suddenly jumped off the bed, scrambled into the corner, and screamed in terror.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you." Chen Yu was stunned; the girl's psychological trauma was deeper than he had imagined.

"I beg you, Young Master Du, don't do this. I beg you to let me go. My period hasn't finished yet, I beg you." Li Su knelt halfway on the ground, pleading incessantly.

"I said, I am here to help you." Chen Yu took a deep breath, raised his Mind Power, and slowly reached out his hand.

Li Su stared blankly at Chen Yu. Under the influence of Chen Yu's Mental Power and friendly face, she slowly reached out her hand.

Chen Yu held her hand: "I know about the harm you've suffered, and I understand. But please rest assured, I will definitely make that bastard pay the price. You must take good care of yourself; your mother has been waiting for you to come home."

Spiritual Light flickered in Chen Yu's eyes as he used his Mind Power to slowly smooth away Li Su's psychological trauma. Li Su stared blankly at Chen Yu; she suddenly felt an intense wave of sleepiness wash over her. Her head tilted to the side, and she collapsed onto the bed.

"Su Su, what happened to my Su Su?" Li Mu rushed in, agitated.

"It's nothing, she's just asleep. After a sleep, she will get better." Chen Yu said: "Don't stimulate her for the next few days, so as to avoid a relapse of her condition."

"Thank you so much, you are my benefactor." Li Mu fell to her knees on the floor with a thud, sobbing uncontrollably: "Li Su's father passed away early, and I worked hard to raise her to adulthood; if something were to happen to her, I truly could not go on living."

"Please get up, Auntie. I will definitely see this matter through to the end, and I will certainly get justice for Li Su." Chen Yu helped her up.

Suddenly, the hospital room door opened, and five or six burly men barged in. The leader was a man one meter eighty-nine tall with a tattoo on his arm; as soon as he entered, he shouted in a muffled voice: "Who is Li Su's mother?"
